If my file has a virus, does that mean my computer is infected?

If a file that you're attaching to an outgoing email has a virus, your computer might be infected. The Norton AntiVirus system on Yahoo!7 Mail might be able to clean the file you're sending out, but it won't be able to clean your computer. If you wish to purchase Norton AntiVirus to protect your computer, click here.

This virus scanner might not be able to detect or repair all viruses and variants. Please be aware that there is a risk involved whenever downloading email attachments to your computer or sending email attachments to others and that, as provided in the Terms of Service, neither Yahoo! nor its licensors are responsible for any damages caused by your decision to do so. The Yahoo!7 Mail team recommends that you never download documents from an unknown source.
